Morning Gooners. No other place to start - despite the fact we have a big Champions League game in around 36 hours (at the time of writing) - other than the shock news that Edu has resigned from his position as Arsenal’s Sporting Director, with what felt like a rather hastily put together announcement from [...]
Happy Tuesday campers, we all good? Tomorrow the team line up against Leverkusen in our penultimate friendly before the season kicks off properly and it'll be the return of Xhaka who I'm sure will get a good reception. I suspect Arteta might do something today, maybe not a press conference (or maybe he will?) but [...]
We knew the day would come, we've been speaking about it for a while, but yesterday it was confirmed that Emile Smith Rowe, ESR, 'The Smith', left Arsenal signed for Fulham on a permanent transfer. I don't think I've seen such a universal sadness from Arsenal fans for a player who had essentially become a [...]
Just a few short days after the final and Gareth Southgate has decided to step down as England manager. And I always find the narrative in the media and on social media as quite interesting when this sort of stuff happens. Suddenly everyone is out saying what a fantastic job he did, how he did [...]
There's a fair few people on the internets and social medias today who are a little sad about the whole Benjamin Sesko stuff. I feel like there's been a little bit of 'reading between the lines' from a few journo's though and, without wanting to come across as a completely smug d*ck, I kind of [...]
Last night I did a bit of an impromptu pod with Cookie on the Same Old Arsenal channel in which we talked about 'keep, loan or sell' through a selection of players. I reeled off a few Transfermarkt figures in Euros but, if you're a regular user of Transfermarkt like I am, you'll know that [...]
I hosted our Same Old Arsenal pod last night for our summer series "one in, one out, one bangs" and had good friends Akhil, Albert and Dave join me to talk about what they'd like to see this summer. We also touched on the Man City rumoured suing the Premier League situation briefly, which I talked [...]
Morning and happy Tuesday from the Algarve. I think most of the football is pretty much wrapped up now, what with City losing to United at the weekend and then Southampton being promoted to the Prem yesterday, so until the Euro's start in a couple of weeks we're having to find snippets of Arsenal-related info [...]
We're halfway through the week, halfway to our next cup final and as awesome as it's been drinking in all of the salty Scum tears, the focus absolutely has to switch to the challenge of Bournemouth, who will not be an easy opponent on Saturday lunchtime. One person I will be hoping that is in [...]
First and foremost - congrats to Bukayo Saka for being named the England men's player of the year for the second year running. It is an award that relates to the national team and so for me personally, I haven't paid too much attention to it, but kudos to him for picking up another award [...]
